A guard permitted Phyllis to make a phone call to the hospital to check on Summer, but Phyllis wasn't able to learn anything. Later, she tried to sneak another phone call, but the warden caught her. Maggie reported to Jill that Ji Min's windpipe had been crushed, proving that his death had not been an accident. Kevin and Jana received good news about the results of her surgery. Colleen told Jana and Kevin about Ji Min's death.
September 10 to 14, 2007
Nick was banished from the jail after he pretended to be Phyllis' attorney. After Ji Min's death, residents of Genoa City tried to find ways to hold on to the Clear Springs project. Jill vowed to release the tape that proved Jack was the owner of Jabot Cosmetics, but she didn't know who had the tape. A newscast exposed that Jack owned Jabot, and Sharon became disenchanted with Jack for keeping the truth from her. Daniel and Lily signed their final divorce papers. Cane hired J.T. to investigate who had been stealing copper from the Clear Springs site. Amber found the missing money and devised a plan to keep it all for herself. Nikki used the key card to David's room, and the two ended up making love for the first time. Amber saved Jill from the steam room when the door was stuck. David and Nikki raced downstairs just as Victor, Nick, and Victoria were walking by, and their affair was made public.
September 17 to 21, 2007
Jill told an unbelieving Cane that Amber was the one who had saved her life after Jill had been trapped in the steam room at the club. Paul reminded J.T. that even though things were going well with Victoria, J.T. should consider the future, knowing that Victoria was accustomed to the finer things in life and having ample money, while J.T. was just an average man with an average paycheck. Jana refused to talk with Kevin about a future of any kind. Daniel and Amber caught their exes in a more than friendly kiss at the divorce party. Karen and Neil got closer, as did Devon and his date, Roxanne. The missing money was found in Ji Min's room, letting a thankful Daniel, Kevin, and Amber off the hook. Phyllis received visits from Daniel, Jack, and Victor, and Nick was allowed to see her, too. Gloria gave the tape of Jack's wrongdoing to Victor to do with as he pleased. Jack decided to confess about Jabot after talking with Sharon and Phyllis, who both agreed that the public would forgive him. Brad told Sharon that she didn't belong with Nick or Jack; she belonged with him because they shared a true love. Brad later apologized to Victor, Sharon, and Colleen, claiming to be a new man on the first night of Yom Kippur.
September 24 to 28, 2007

Sharon faced off with Jack, and Nick told Phyllis about his and Sharon's kiss, leaving both Phyllis and Jack feeling betrayed. Jack ordered Nick not to visit his house again, and Phyllis put Sharon in her place at the prison. Colleen invited Brad to have a homemade dinner with her and Adrian. Cane and Lily were obviously attracted to each other, but their age difference kept getting in the way. Brad and Abby told Victoria about Ashley's engagement to Ridge Forrester, but Brad and Victoria decided not to tell Abby about the baby that Victoria was carrying until the child was born and they could confirm the identity of the father. Victor took great pride in taunting Jack as more was revealed about Jack's ownership of Jabot and his new career as a public official. Brad called a newspaper and informed someone that another man was wooing Sharon. Kevin refused to help Gloria plot to regain the cream that Jeffrey had in his possession. Victor began to have his property drilled near the Clear Springs project, putting Nikki's company at risk. Victor and Nikki agreed to divorce. J.T. planned a very special evening for Victoria, and he proposed.
October 8 to 12, 2007
Paul and Maggie continued to discuss the possible suspects in the Ji Min murder case. Victoria told her parents and Nick about her engagement to J.T. Victor and Nikki told close friends and family that they were divorcing. The story of Nick and Sharon's kiss in the bank vault leaked out and caused more problems for Jack and Phyllis. Phyllis' appeal was shot down. J.T. and Victoria saw David have a conversation with someone at the Clear Springs construction site, and J.T. was suspicious. Lily and Devon behaved badly in front of Karen, and Neil threatened to force them to move out if they did not change their ways. Adrian accepted another teaching post at Genoa City University. Heather discovered some unsettling news while visiting with Adrian and Colleen at their apartment. Kevin told Jana that he was going on the Internet to explain her case to the public. Gloria wondered what Jeffrey really wanted from her. Michael had Nikki, Victor, Jack, and Nick all work together to get Phyllis out of jail and into a work release program that would allow for her to work on the Clear Springs project.
October 15 to 19, 2007
Phyllis decided to try to get into the work release program. Jack became the top suspect on Maggie's list of who could possibly have killed Ji Min. John paid a ghostly visit to Jack, complimenting him on his choice of a wife. John said that he was on Jack's side, but he said it wouldn't be a bad idea if Jack discovered Ji Min's actual killer. Michael warned Gloria that Jeffrey might just want her money, and Jeffrey could try to put her behind bars. Cane received word from J.T. that someone in Clear Springs had sold substandard materials to the foreman. Nick decided to go back to work, leaving everyone wondering what would happen to Neil. J.T. found out some information about the foreman, but he didn't have enough proof to accuse anyone of wrongdoing at Clear Springs. Phyllis learned that she had been approved to be a part of the work release program, and she couldn't wait to work with Nick again. Victor made a decision about who would run Newman Enterprises, and he made Neil, Nick, and Victoria a triumvirate, meaning that all three would be in charge of different parts of the company. Nikki told Katherine that she and Victor were getting a divorce. Various people showed up at Clear Springs for different reasons, and the parking garage started to collapse.
October 22 to 26, 2007
The Clear Springs parking garage was reduced to a pile of rubble when the substandard building material used in the project gave way. Many residents of Genoa City were trapped and trying to escape amidst the falling debris. Outside the garage, others waited for news about their loved ones. Phyllis panicked at the thought of losing Nick and was concerned about Noah and Jack, who were also trapped in the debris. Sharon and Nick emerged from the garage, while Jack remained trapped after helping them get out. Noah, Paul, Maggie, and Lauren were all rescued. Noah suffered broken ribs and a ruptured spleen, which had to be removed. Amber was trapped in her car, but she managed to break a window and crawl out. She found Katherine and stayed with her as they both suffered from lack of oxygen. Cane and J.T. made it out safely, but they returned with help for Katherine and Amber. Kevin set up a website to keep everyone informed about the people who had been found and rescued. Victoria, who was one of the last people to be found, was with Adrian as they waited for the rescue team to find them. Rubble fell on Victoria, knocking her out and putting her into a coma. A doctor assured the Newmans that the baby was okay, but Victoria's condition was dire. Brad suffered from eye abrasions due to the explosion, but he told everyone that he was all right. Victor rescued Jack from the debris.
October 29 to November 2, 2007

Phyllis was released from jail so that she could take part in the work release program. Cane and Katherine both felt guilty about what had happened at Clear Springs. Jack was named a prime suspect in the murder of Ji Min. Cane and Heather bonded further over their similar childhood memories. Jeffrey invited Gloria out to dinner, and Kevin tagged along, hoping that he could keep his mother from saying anything that she shouldn't. Paul debated whether or not he should tell Heather that he was her father. Lauren continued to have panic attacks as she relived her ordeal at Clear Springs. While Jeffrey and Gloria wooed one another, Kevin was afraid that she was becoming enamored with Jeffrey. Kevin was relieved when he learned that Gloria was entirely aware of what Jeffrey was trying to do and that she was no fool.

NOVEMBER 2007
November 5 to 9, 2007
Several high-profile Genoa City residents were cleared of responsibility in the Clear Springs accident. The drilling that Victor had ordered was revealed to be the cause of the explosion, but it was ruled an accident. Jack took a sample of Zapato's hair to Maggie so that it could be tested against some pet hair found in Ji Min's room, but Maggie couldn't accept it as evidence because the sample was not obtained by the authorities. Karen and Neil made love. Lily became disenchanted when Cane dated Heather, and but she perked up when she realized that Cane had called her after he'd dropped off Heather at home. Lauren suffered another panic attack in the presence of Michael, Paul, and Maggie. Heather overheard Michael, Lauren, and Paul talking about Sheila and the fact that Paul had vowed to make sure that she never escaped. Victoria's family waited at the hospital for news about Victoria and the baby. While in prison, Jana found out about John's s close friend, and she relayed the news to Kevin and Gloria, hoping they would be able to find out why John had left Gloria out of his will.

Lauren and Michael opted for a take-out Thanksgiving meal from Gina's. Kevin announced that he wouldn't be able to make the dinner due to a previous appointment, which would include proposing marriage to Jana. Amber and Daniel spent Thanksgiving Day together, knowing that their friendship was very dear to both of them.
November 26 to 30, 2007
Jack was called before the Senate Ethics Committee after Gloria launched an email campaign using various aliases to send in complaints. Jack and Ben plotted to throw suspicion for Ji Min's death onto Victor to divert attention from Jack. With Victoria still in a coma, her family became divided as they took sides about whether to deliver her baby early to save her or to allow the baby to develop to save him. They ended up in court, but before the judge made his decision, Victoria's condition took a turn for the worse, and everyone agreed to allow the C-section. Surgical complications put Victoria in critical condition. Jill came up with an idea for a contest to choose the new Fresh Face of Jabot, and she and Cane encouraged Lily to enter. After being turned away from the contest, Amber decided to enter in disguise.

DECEMBER 2007
December 3 to 7, 2007
Jack was called before the ethics committee to explain his questionable acquisition of Jabot. Gloria received what appeared to be a letter from John, stating that she was the love of his life and was entitled to half of what he had owned upon his death. Victoria was taken home to recover in familiar surroundings. Gloria was permitted to speak before the committee, and she read the letter from John, proving that Jack had "done [her] wrong." Jack called it a fake and vowed to get to the bottom of why it had suddenly appeared. Gloria's face turned ashen as she wondered just how much Jeffrey knew about her little secret.
December 10 to 14, 2007
Sharon ended up at Victor's place after she became disillusioned with Jack, and Victor suggested that she spend time at the ranch. Victor told Neil that he needed to call in Nikki's loan. John paid Jack a visit to talk to him about Sharon. Jeffrey announced to Gloria that he knew the truth about the Jabot tampering, but he promised to keep her secret if she married him. Jack resigned his Senate seat but vowed to get Sharon back. A DNA test was done to determine the father of Victoria's baby. Brad vowed to do everything he could to keep Victor away from the baby if Brad was found to be the father. Sharon gave Nikki permission to stay at her home instead of living under Victor's roof.

Lily and Cane almost shared a kiss.
December 17 to 21, 2007
Sharon and Jack's relationship worsened, and Sharon announced that she and Noah would move out of the Abbott mansion and into the ranch house. Sharon turned to Brad for comfort, and Jack turned to Phyllis for help with his failing marriage. Phyllis convinced Michael to represent Jana in her murder trial. Gloria also sought out Michael's legal counsel to sue Jack for the Abbott mansion. As Gloria plotted her revenge on Jack, she got Kevin to help her stall her marriage to Jeffrey. Victor told Nikki that he was calling in her loan. Nikki retaliated by suing Victor for causing the explosion in Clear Springs. Nikki's side strengthened when Katherine and Jack joined her lawsuit. Maggie divulged that she had found Ji Min's blood in Victor's gym bag. Victor vowed to take on anyone who opposed him. J.T. was the father of Victoria's baby. J.T. named his son Reed, in honor of Nikki's maiden name. Brad was heartbroken, so J.T. told Brad that he could visit Reed whenever he wanted. Paul asked Heather to join him for Christmas, and she accepted. With the blessing of Devon and Lily, Neil invited Karen to spend Christmas with them. Lily continued to pursue Cane, but she was disappointed when he rejected her because of their age difference. Amber admitted to Katherine that she still loved Cane, but Katherine kindly urged her to move on. Amber then partook in retail therapy, and Daniel became suspicious of Amber's sudden excess of cash.
December 24 to 28, 2007
Reed's condition continued to improve. Victor learned of the lawsuit Nikki had filed against him, and he decided to file a countersuit and hired J.T. to investigate David. Victor turned to Michael for legal help with the Ji Min murder investigation. As Victor worked on damage control, David proposed to Nikki. Nikki admitted her love for David, but she could not give him an immediate answer. David received a mysterious phone call during which he obscurely stated that he did not have the money yet. Victor and Nikki were forced to stay in the same house when a storm prevented Nikki from returning to her own place. Nick was worn out from his family's feuding, so Phyllis cheered him up with a romantic evening. Jack's family situation worsened when Gloria announced that John's letter had been authenticated. Sharon, who was still intent on moving out of the Abbott mansion, urged Jack to honor John's wishes by giving Gloria half of the estate.

Victor was arrested for the murder of Ji Min, thanks to evidence that proved Victor had been the last person to see Ji Min alive. Jack admitted to Ashley that he had tampered with their father's will. Both John's ghost and Ashley urged Jack to give Gloria her money. Jeffrey continued to blackmail Gloria into giving him $50,000 and a public marriage proposal. Gloria agreed, but she secretly called on Kevin to get her out of the mess. Brad attempted to forge an unlikely alliance with Phyllis when he proposed that they break up Sharon and Jack. Brad's plan was thwarted when Phyllis turned him down, and Sharon decided to remain married. Lily and Cane rang in the New Year by exchanging longing glances and flirty compliments. Finally, the two agreed to "hang out" because they could no longer deny their attraction.
